was not thought much of as part
either in London or New York. Per-
haps it exactly suited this particular
actress. At all events, she carried off
the honors, and it was her manner
that did it. shall never forget
the effect of her smile ande eye
upon the audience as she
played about the stage. She had
delightful, high bred look, and she de-
livered her lines to her stage-lover
with the air of duchess masquerade
ing as fishermaid. 1t won the house.
The women smiled in reminiscent
and fond way at her, and the men
pulled their mustaches, settled their
collars, and were glad. So much for
a captivating manner. When it is
coupled with beauty it will win in the
face of everything. Miss Helen
Standish will be heard from some day.
One day a youth of great frankness
and good humor was int0duced to
Mrs. Langtry. He looked into the
cool depths of her clear gray eyes for
moment, and then said:
"You had a tremendous effect on
me the first time l saw you, Mrs.
Langtry."
"Did II" said the Lily musically.
Overwhelming. l was strolling
down town on very clear and snappy
November day two years ago, rumin-
ating on the chances of the stock
market, when l glanced up suddenly
and met your eyes. They were look

green velvet gown and your cheeks
were red from the brisk breeze. l

pulled myself together and made an
awkward apology for my rudeness. |

most on a run and swept people aside
as though they were so much chaff "
he stopped half breatlessly and then
added: 'I'm rushing ahead rather
fast now, eh?"
"Rawther," said the Lily, anus
edly.
"Well, my object in telling you of
it is to apologize for staring at you so
hard"
81 remember the incident very
WE'LL" said Mrs. Langtry, "and it
don't require an apology at all. Wo-
men adore such affronts as that"
She kept smiling at the man as she
talked with such an air OF thorough
good nature and good fellowship that
she reduced him in a twinkling to the
same extraordinary condition that had
characterized him when he made the
run after he had looked thousand
miles into her eyes on that November
day.

it, and Edith Kingdom won the son of
$500, ,000,0 900 without an effort, because
she was mild, affectionate, and had
a way of talking to men that made
them feel like heroes before she had

DIR. DANIEL HALE WILL
LIAMS.

In our weekly review this week
we stated that there was only one
colored physician in the medical
congress, and up to the time the
review was written nothing was
seen of him, although he was a
delegate. 1t was our oversight,
as DR.. Daniel Hale Williams, of
Chicago, has been present at the
Congress since the first day, aud
is the only representative man OF
color present. DR.. Williams Is
the most highly educated coIored
physician in this country, and a
man of whom the race should feel
proud. He read an excellent pa
per Wednesday, which was inter-
esting as we'll as instructive.
AS a writer, he is concise, and
as speaker, he is logical and po-
lite. Ever since he has been in
the city, he has been at the Ebbitt
House, with the other members OF
the Chicago delegation.

MASTER COOK,

Master VIM. Cook, the young
Vlolinist gave a musical recital to
the press of this city, at Metze
rotts Wednesday afternoon. The
National Republican was the only
white journal present, although
the colored people o: this city con-
tribute very largely to the sup,
port of the Star, Critic, Post and
other weekly papers edited by
our white friends The recital OIL
last Wednesday afternoon was very
good and it is hoped that our cit
izens will turn out in force at the
Congregational church next Wed

Mary Nalle and Annie r. Sprague

fortunate in securing seats may ex-
pect a rare musical treat.
The occasion is one that calls for
more than passing notice. Mr..
Cook is ambitious to take rank
among the great violinists, not
alone for the benefits that may &C.
crue to him, but for the advanta-
ges it will give our race. He is
among those who believe that the
moral intellectual and material ele'
vation Of the Negro can best be &C.
complished through individual ad
vancement. While we may not
wholly endorse MT. Cooks views
yet we freely admit that few such
musicians as we believe he is des
tined to become would go far to
wards bettering our condition. The
vast auditorium of the Congrega
tional church should be filled tt
overhowing on this occasion. W.
bespeak for MT. Cook a brilliant
success.

hearing before the justice Of peace. The
man was charged with dseoying this gill
from her home. She quickly said, ''No,
got the money and brought him away"
The case was dismissed and the man went
free. The Charlotte Messenger published
the same to the world, and asked for
help to put stop to white women steal
ing our men at the fearful rate of 1.-TWO
per week." Again, in Chester, South
Carolina a white woman whose father
was a carriage manufacturer and had ac-
cumulated considerable property, mar
ried a Negro school teacher in the kitcl-
en- while the family were at tea. A col
ored minister, Rev. B. Burton, ma. ried
them. They are now living at Yorkville
5. G. having several children and living
in easy circumstances. A similar case oc-
CURED in Tennessee not long since, but a
hundred per cent worse. A white wo-
man ran off from her husband with Ne
gro. We know of Certain case in one
of our South Carolina townships, where a
white woman, owning large country
farm, mules, horses, COWS, ETC., ran her
husband away, (he was naturally a sort
of worthless creature.) and afterwards the
Negro carriage driver became master of
the situation. We read a few months ago
of a white woman who fed with her col
Ored beau, and how she was noticed
hugging her little Black ACE OF SPADES.
What means the Glenn Bill, but to
stop the possibility of such things. The
people of Montgomery ought not to al
low their passion to outweigh their rea-
son. Take things calmly. 1fyou say
he erred it is but human so to do. But
for daring to say through his paper what
he conceived TO be lis duty, he is driven
from his home, wife and children with a
threat if he ever returns. Such perse-
cution might be put in the same cata-
logue side by side, with the persecution
IN the days of Luther, when he dared
bring the storm against the papacy OF
Rome. Men should be allowed to have
their say and their opinion taken for
what it is worth. We bow our head In
shame and hope for a better day.

PLAIN FACTS.
(From the Birmingham Era.)


Mr.. j. G.. DUKE of the Montgomery
Herald Vas this week chased away from
Montgomery because Of an article that
appeared in his paper, attempting to give
reasons for so much lynehing in the
South. This is in substance, what Mr.,
Duke said, if the report be true, we
failed to get last weeks issue of the pa.
per. That '1ynching of the Negroes for
raping white women is becoming more
and more frequent in occurrence all the
time, not that Negroes are more desper-
ate and wicked, but it is explained by
the fact that white women become more
infatuated with the Negro men and are
attracted 20 them on account of the in
creasing intelligence and refinements of
the Negro" etc. Now, we ask, what
is there in this paragraph, as this seems to
be the specified one, so notorious as to
raise such howl of indignation and
clamoring for Dukes life Is it not DOS
sible that white women could love col
ored men, what is there inhuman about
this {? We can cite you several instances
where white girls, whose parents were
comparatively rich, at any rate, living in
easy circumstances; eloping with colored
men. One prominent case occurred near
Charlotte, N. c., some time ago.
A young white girl ran off with colored
man, taking several thousand dollars of
her fathers money. They were arrested
at Charlotte, and they had preliminary

NEGROES SYMPATHY FOR
IRELAND.

Now and then We see published
in the daily papers of some meeting
held by colored men expressing
sympathy for Ireland and the Irish
people. We cannot see any reason
for this, why the colored people
should manifest so much interest in
Ireland or the Irish people when
Irish Americans are so inimical to
their interest. At the time of the
Carrolton and Danville massacres
we heard of no Irish Americans
calling meetings to condemn these
outrages against the colored peo-
pie. Todyism among the colored
people must cease if they want to
be recognized as dignified and
independent race. We have no
sympathy for the Irish people, any
more than what they have for us &
We advise the colored people to
say no more in their interest than
what they say in ours. The Irish
people as mass are opposed to the
Negro and this everlasting express
sion of sympathy for them is un-
called for, b. initiating and synco-
phantic.
At the National Convention of
colored men held in Louisville, KY,
three years ago, a resolution was
adopted by that BODY of represen-
tative Negroes denouncing England
and sympathizing with Ireland.
England has been the Negroes
friend while the American Irish
people have offered every insult to
the oppressed Negro. The Negroes
have expressed enough sympathy
for the Irish for which they have
received nothing in return. Chari-
ity should always begin at home
and as so many colored people are
being butchered i'm the south, it is
now in order TOR the Irish to send
aid and express their public spmpa-
thy.

AN APPEAL TO THE BAPTIST.
A CoLoRED INSTITUTION FOR LYNCH
BURG.

The Board of Education of Vir.
ginia accepted of the citizens of
Lynchburg a donation of a beauti.
full site upon which to erect a
school building to be known as the
Lynchburg Seminary, which was
heartily endorsed by the Virginia
Baptist State convention that met
in Danville in May last, and forth
with appointed competent Board
of managers with the power to
elect a Board of Trustees, one of
whom is the Rev. W. B, johnson,
pastor of the Second Bapt. church.
1t was resolved, by the Board in
July, of which Rev. VIM. Troy, is
chairman, Rev. P. F. Morris, Sec,
to commence the building in Octo.
ber 1887. In order to do this it
was agreed that at least $4,000
should be raised at once. Hence
the following recommendation:
1st. That every Baptist church
give not less than SIS and as much
more as possible. End. That every
District association, Sunday School
convention and other organizations
give not less than $40 and as much
more as possible. 3rd. That every
Sunday school give not less than
81 and as much more as possible.
4th. That every missionary and ed
ucational society give not less than
So and as much more as possible.
9Th. That the 4th Sunday in Sept,
1887, be observed by the Baptist
churches throughout Virginia and
as far as the jurisdiction of the
Virginia State convention extends,
as "Lynchburg Seminary day.D
Rev. d. Morris, the appointed and
duly authorized agent, who is to
travel in and out of the state has
been in the city for about two
weeks in the interest of the said
school. There is no man, in our
opinion, in the State of Virginia, bet
ter suited for this great and good
work than Rev. Morris and certain
ly there is none who would be
more accepted to the Baptist of
the District of Columbia. He is
learned, dignified and bold, still
he is affable, gentle and kind.
He is the man for the work. [ here
by most respectfully, but very earn
estly, appeal to the churches of the
First Washington Association and
beg to suggest that all of the Bapt.
churches of Washington and every
friend to the cause of education
do what they can on or before the
4th Sunday in Sept, or as soon
thereafter as possible for tho Semi
nary. We believe that any amount
will be gratefully received and
rightly used for the said school.
